No, if it's his/her forum, he/she can make you an administrator, and that would be fine... but seeing as it's on your site right now, it's a breach of the agreement.

No, it's actually on HIS/HER site, using sub-domains, and a .htaccess file which changes the name of the sub-domain to a shorter name with dots in it instead of folderpaths, if you know what I mean.

SAFAD: It's available publicly when the devs deem it ready. Charter Members get it ahead of everyone else as a reward for their donations to help support Simple Machines.

SoLoGHoST: Strictly speaking, the ability for CMs to download and use RC2 should really be for their own forum, not really to allow use on test forums other than ones they are using themselves ahead of the public release.

I would note that there may well be changes between the preview RC2 and the public RC2 so you are advised to NOT test your mods on it just yet anyway, nor can you mark your mods as RC2 compatible on the mod site at this time.

You can see our position; this is a preview given to our Charter supporters and to see a non Charter Member seemingly having access is normally against the Charter Members rules, especially as we may well see "but he had it..." messages.

SoLoGHoST

Ok, no probs, will ask that he/she remove it immediately.

    • Wireless links to switch back to normal mode.

    Can someone explain this? Where is the manual for this version?

    It depends on the theme. Make sure to ask the theme author's permission before taking their work and redistributing it. However, themes themselves shouldn't need any kind of translation, they would use the SMF language files.

    If you are browsing the forum on your phone and are on the mobile version, a link will also be included to display the "full" version. Not sure about your manual question, RC2 shouldn't behave any different from the previous RC.

    You know what would be amazingly useful? If someone who is running SMF2 could start maintaining an ongoing list of mods for SMF1 that are no longer necessary due to new built-in functionality of SMF2. Would greatly reduce the amount of research those of us with lots of mods need to do as we prepare for an SMF1 -> SMF2 upgrade.

    Thanks in advance. ;)

    I've just seen some of the demo sites and want to congratulate everybody that made Curve possible... nice work ;), besides the modern part, it looks much more "warmer" and "lighter" than the previous default one... now let's see if it will be easier to customize also.  ;D

    New feature: "Load Balancing". What that actually do?

    Quote from: Nao/Gilles on October 05, 2009, 05:51:41 AM
    Lol, makes me think of something: wasn't SMF2 feature frozen already? ;)

    Well, the load balancing settings have been included as hidden settings since 1.1, so technically it doesn't classify as a new feature. We just added an interface to edit them. ;)

    Awesome job! When SMF2 becomes final I am going to start a new forum :) .

    I can think of two (I'm sure there are more, but this is all I can think of at the moment):
    Redirection boards (though the mod does have some additional functionality)
    Visual warning (SMF 2.0 has built-in user warnings)

    Also: custom profile fields. (they are built-in in 2.0)
    To-do lists are for deferral. The more things you write down the later they're done... until you have 100s of lists of things you don't do.

    I have noticed that the new database functions for SMF 2.0.x such as $smcFunc['db_create_table'] and $smcFunc['db_add_column'] both require {db_prefix} be inserted just before the table name.

    For Example, this will work for SMF 2.0 RC2:

    $smcFunc['db_create_table']('{db_prefix}table_name', $columns_array, $column_indexes, array(), 'ignore');


    But this will NOT work for SMF 2.0 RC2 (Although, works fine in SMF 2.0 RC1.2):

    $smcFunc['db_create_table']('table_name', $columns_array, $column_indexes, array(), 'ignore');


    Well, I'm just wondering if this is a mistake or forgotten line of code when coding for this, or is this going to be the new standard that will need to have {db_prefix} for table names at all times.

    Thanks :)
